Inpatient Consultation Services

University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center (UHCMC)

At University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center (UHCMC), there are two inpatient consultation services. Physicians can request an ID consultation by paging the fellow or the attending through the UHCMC paging system.

The ID Consultation Service

An Infectious Diseases consultation may be requested for evaluation and management of adult hospitalized patients with acute and chronic infectious diseases complications.

The Carpenter Service

The Carpenter Service is primarily for our HIV hospitalized patient. When HIV-infected patients are admitted to the hospital and require a consult, they will be evaluated by the Carpenter attending.

University Hospitals Health System Inpatient Consultations

We currently have three community-based ID physicians who serve Ahuja Medical Center and Richmond Medical Center. An Infectious Diseases consultation may be requested for evaluation and management of adult hospitalized patients with acute and chronic infectious diseases complications at any of these facilities.
